Distributional Impacts of Alternative Methods of Financing Higher Education
Vredeveld, George M.
Journal of Higher Education, 49, 1, 47-69, Jan/Feb 78
The income redistributive effects of financing public higher education in a midwestern state is measured. The results show that the financing scheme is regressive in that low-income families' share of program costs exceeds their benefits. The effects of four alternative methods of financing are also considered. (Author/LBH)
